Hence, given the high cellular demand for iron, photosynthetic organisms. sophisticated systems exist to control Fe uptake and intracellular distribution due to its potential toxicity. Strikingly, the Fe sensing systems and associated transcription factors generally differ in THE CLASS II GRX AND BOLA COUPLE bacteria, yeast/fungi, mammals, and plants, but might include PROTEINS PRESENT IN BACTERIA OR common actors such as glutaredoxins (GRXs) and BOLAs (Couturier et al., 2015). IN EUKARYOTE ORGANELLES ARE Two GRX classes, I and II, are present in most INVOLVED IN THE SYNTHESIS OF FE–S organisms whereas additional classes are specific to some CLUSTERS species/genus/kingdoms (Alves et al., 2009; Couturier et al., 2009). GRXs of the first class are involved in redox regulation, The first evidence about GRX involvement in the biogenesis of reducing protein disulfides or glutathione-protein mixed Fe–S proteins were obtained from a S. cerevisiae mutant for disulfides. GRXs from class II participate in the regulation the mitochondrial Grx5 (Table 1; Rodríguez-Manzaneque et al., of Fe homeostasis (Mühlenhoff et al., 2010; Haunhorst et al., 2002; Mühlenhoff et al., 2003). Orthologs of this single domain- 2013) and in the maturation of Fe–S proteins owing to containing GRX are found in bacteria, archaea and plant plastids. their capacity to ligate and exchange [2Fe–2S] clusters with The current view is that Grx5 is required for the maturation partner proteins (Table 1; Rodríguez-Manzaneque et al., 2002; of all types of Fe–S clusters in mitochondria, receiving a [2Fe– Bandyopadhyay et al., 2008).

Grx5 is also required for the Regarding the BOLA family, an extensive phylogenetic maturation of nucleo-cytosolic Fe–S proteins and the activation analysis allowed delineating four groups, namely BOLA1– of the Aft1 transcription factor, pointing to its key position in BOLA4 (Couturier et al., 2014). BOLA1s are present in S. cerevisiae (see below) (Uzarska et al., 2013). Yeast Bol1 and both bacteria and eukaryotes, BOLA2s and BOLA3s in Bol3, which have the capacity to form heterodimers with Grx5, eukaryotes and BOLA4s in photosynthetic organisms, archaea, were later shown to be required for a specific set of mitochondrial and bacteria. Pioneer works revealed functions for Escherichia [4Fe–4S] proteins, without affecting de novo synthesis of [2Fe– coli BolA in the regulation of cell morphology, possibly as a 2S] proteins (Uzarska et al., 2016). So far, human BOLA3, transcriptional regulator (Aldea et al., 1989), for Saccharomyces but not BOLA1, has been demonstrated as required for the cerevisiae cytosolic Bol2/Fra2 (Fe repressor of activation 2) maturation of specific Fe–S proteins (Table 1; Cameron et al., in the regulation of iron homeostasis (Lesuisse et al., 2005; 2011; Willems et al., 2013). The client proteins are notably Kumánovics et al., 2008), and for mitochondrial BOLAs (human the succinate dehydrogenase/complex II and lipoate synthase. BOLA3 and yeast Bol1, Bol3) in the maturation of Fe–S Moreover, the fact that bol1–bol31 mutants are neither affected clusters (Table 1; Cameron et al., 2011; Melber et al., 2016; in the CIA machinery, nor in Aft1 activation, indicates that Grx5 Uzarska et al., 2016). has physiological roles independent of Bol1 and Bol3 (Uzarska A very close relationship between class II GRXs and et al., 2016). Additional studies suggested that Bol1 indeed BOLAs was initially evident from genome (gene co-occurrence acts early in the ISC pathway in concert with Grx5 (possibly and clustering, existence of fusion proteins) and large-scale only for [4Fe–4S] proteins) whereas Bol3 may preferentially act interactomic analyses in various organisms (reviewed in with NFU1, a late Fe–S cluster transfer protein, to preserve Przybyla-Toscano et al., 2017).
